A new biography of Ven. Fulton Sheen gives
special attention to his high-profile converts, but reveals many
other interesting facets of his life as well. Author Cheryl Hughes
joins to discuss Sheen’s at times shockingly direct evangelization
methods, his outstanding television presence, his lifelong struggle
with vanity and ambition, and the mistreatment he suffered from his
rival, Cardinal Spellman.
